Message: [QUOTE="FrancoPizza, post: 4796460, member: 5195"] To be blunt, we didn't fare well vs Top 10 competition during the McNabb years. We had some nice top 25 wins and some great finishes to go along with several What losses every year. But when we suited up against a legit top 10 team we lost and looked outmatched. The What losses, I'm convinced, were a result of overcomplicating things too often and not letting the elite talent at the skill positions just do their thing. Against top 10 talent, the deficiencies in line play were just too much to overcome unless we had a brilliant scheme in place to mitigate that somehow. I think Marvin Graves' sophomore and junior years were a better testament to the feeling we could compete with anybody. Beat a top 10 team in both years. But again, we're talking 2 years. That's it. Out of the last 30. Oh vey. [/QUOTE]
